I am cautiously optimistic about this. Like some of the designs, but given how late TGitG is I'm still wary. Not going to be pledging as much that's for sure.

[eldargal]

Reasonable. I won't be pledging as much because I'm kind of unimpressed with the state of tabletop gaming in general but I'll be getting a respectable amount of stuff still. I hope their experiences with the first one and the inevitable delays leads to more realistic estimates. Though personally I'm not fussed about the longer than expected wait. Though I can't wait to get the miniature of me.:p #smug

[Gotthammer]

Only two of everything instead of four? :p Mostly I'm just unimpressed by the lack of consistent communication about the wait, but that is a problem for most kickstarters it seems.


Though I can't wait to get the miniature of me.:p #smug

Same ;)

[eldargal]

I never got four of everything, not the characters.:p Yup but it's a hard thing to get right. Lots of empty updated with no information annoy people, but if you don't update you annoy people so if you're waiting for shipments from casters what do you do? RH did updates with concept art and painted samples and stuff and people were grumbling about them so they did less. Hopefully they will get the balance right in future.

[euansmith]

Hopefully they will be all over this following their first campaign. I was a bit disappointed by the difference between the concepts for the TGitG and the final models I've seen pictures of, but then I guess there will always be some changes over the process. I may pick up enough SotO for some small scale skirmish action with "In the Emperor's Name" or "1 Page Kill Team".

That mobile altar looks totally bonkers; especially for a resin kit; at least they are being ambitious.

[Archon]

Stunning artworks as ever. RH will make the minis very close to the artwork und yes i like both themes, but i love the dark elves. I´m a little shy of this kickstarter because i haven´t get my minis from the first one. Okay i selected "deliver me, when all is finished" but i feel the over all delay disapointing.

It is very daring to launch a "blitzkick" for a 6 army project. This could be kicking in like a comet or go down with silent steps. I guess the former ;-) But i´m realy not sure if i want to back it.

Hi there, just a small update : the kickstarter is live and starter strong.

Lots of new concepts on the page.

Also, to be perfectly fair, on their first kickstarter, you could spend more on shipping and get the miniatures in waves, as they were being produced: two waves have already shipped this way. ;)

[Kirsten]

went live earlier today and instantly obliterated its' target

[Kamin_Majere]

I've been working on box fulls of the original kick starter. But i was willing to get the 3 waves of shipments as to not wait for stuff until the end.

Unfortunately with this kickstarter not unlocking things together i feel these 3 armies might be missing stuff the first three got, and if i dont get those heavy armored Nuns and the war alters i'm going to be very very sad :(
plus i want the harpy nest purely for the joy of putting that together and painting it... that model is going to be amazing

I really thought for sure i wouldn't want the Eminence Pledge level this time... my wish isn't working out so far

Also rough calculations show the KS is going to have to hit nearly 1 million dollars to unlock everything this time if they keep the 10K per individual thing instead of grouping them together :(

[Kirsten]

I am sure they will adjust the stretch goals as they go along. they wouldn't actually withhold models out of some arbitrary assignment of goals. whatever they have planned will be released at some point regardless I am certain.

I am still waiting for mine as I just got the one shipment, but most of it was posted last Monday, so any day now. I keep looking at the new kickstarter thinking there are units I want, but none of them are for armies I currently have, just for armies I am planning, so I am trying to hold off.

[eldargal]

I'm going to be focusing on scifi and fantasy Elves and just get some not-SoB characters. I really like their not-Incubi and the centaurs and creepy not-Dark Eldar stuff is going to make great haemonculi and Wych Cult material.

First of the freebies:

[Kirsten]

apparently they were funded in five minutes. don't know if that is true or not, but it wouldn't surprise me, given that it now sits at $440,000...

[energongoodie]

I think it was closer to 2 minutes to be fair.
I'm not enjoying their lack of comms and update. I guess they are busy :)

[Kirsten]

they have been busy non-stop since the first kickstarter in 2013 :p

[lobster-overlord]

I just got my TGG1 freebies today, and while I am super impressed with the SO-NOT-GW-FINECAST quality of them, I'm lacking in seeing an army I would want out of this second one. As an IG/SM player, I could use some sisters, but the JB and IK minis just fit the bill so much better. I'm too am leery of the delays. But if quality is what you want, you'll definitely get it.

New update with a new freebie:
http://www.lounge.belloflostsouls.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=13364&d=1427451047

I can see people having difficult getting a complete army out of it. Personally I'm getting some not SoB for Inquisition and SoB characters, some fantasy versions for Empire characters and then a bunch of the not Dark Elves and not Dark Eldar to supplement my armies with those. Lots of exectrixes for Incubi in particular and a lot of the beasty ones for wych cult shenanigans. Not fussed about delays in timing personally so that doesn't bother me.
